I think the difference the pdf sees between German and English is that when someone asks you what you will do today, in German it is fine to say "Ich gehe ins Theater", leaving the listener to decide whether the future is meant, while in English you are supposed to say "I will go to the theatre".
Left out of the fun because GOTO isn't allowed in your programming language? Unwilling to use GOTO because it affects health negatively? Do not worry, we have a 4 step program to help you!

I'm not used to regression tests enough to comment on any particular regression coefficient in the tables.
However, the data seems to be awfully clustered, see page 12. Of 76 countries considered there, fully 59 are rated low FTR(no future required). Most datasets like that would exhibit artifacts in the form of notable regression coefficients.
In addition, I believe an expert in statistics would probably find that if you study such a dataset long enough, you will find some such correlations even if the dataset was generated randomly.
The graph on page 19 looks convincing at first, but take away the outliers Luxemburg and Greece, Luxemburg because it is bascially a huge city where you can earn lots of money by being the head of a shady company that is used by rich Greeks to evade taxes, and Greece, where the state's financial situation is very bad.
The next 8 countries basically take turns between low FTR and high FTR, it isn't much different for the next ten, and then it ends bascially in a block of low FTR
Also, as mentioned in the paper, if data suggests that natives using compass directions know better where north is, why would languages discerning less between future and now work the other way around?
What is being said in there might be correct as far as things have been considered.
There are some problems though:
First, don't name something in a way that conflicts with the usage of the word by physicists. Example: If perceived matter is really something else that moves through something else, don't name the "something else" "matter". Pro physicists go to great length for that reason, consider the weird names for the quarks. Suggestion: One might be better of with prefixing everything with "dark": dark matter, dark ether, dark third field.
Regarding the calculations being made, it is really hard to tell for me whether there are new results matching existing measurements, or whether any matches are the results of tuning the free parameters that are available such that the calculations seem to match reality.
Finally, to have the new theory to be considered, it has to be able to predict something new, or at least it will be necessary to reproduce existing laws to some extent, the same way that Einsteins theories includes and matches Newtons theories for low speeds. So the new theory will have to match Einsteins theories at least under some conditions, approximately, or as a corner case.
Space can both be finite and infinite with regards to some other metric. There is no contradiction. For example consider the inside of a sphere without the shell, commonly referred to as an "open ball":
Well, isn't the concept of "Higgs Bosons" similar to having some sort of "ether"?
Also, there is nothing that says ether must interact with all particles in the same way, or at all. That might sound far-fetched, but it really isn't more far fetched than proposing dark matter and dark energy with similar properties.
It is a very useful addition. That was when I tested their last release.
I wonder whether they have integrated the WINE code enough so one could do stupid stuff, like trying out the only DirectX 4.0 or 5.0 game that must be out there, Chaos Overlords, on it?
I'm not sure that I would go these lengths though, I'd probably have to configure the downloaded VM image I use to try ReactOS.
Recompensate only those who got less than 3 months of service out of it.
If you like interpolation or extrapolation or want to avoid the edge, recompensate those partially who got less than 6 months of service, too.
For example, the lua table object is used by the standard library (table functions) to represent C arrays with integer indexes or more accurately C++ vectors. However, in general you should not attempt to use the resulting table object in any other way than provided for by the table functions. It would have been more user-friendly to have an own vector type for this.
Although it isn't a problem most of the time, sometimes you want to preserve the order in an associative array with non-numerical indexes like you are used to for example in PHP. As far as I know this can only be achieved by having a second table defining the order.
I really like using "or" to express default initialization anywhere though, this will assign "die" if funny is null (or false): function be(funny) funny = funny or "die".. end
Fact is that unless you copy a new design of monopoly or use a similar name to "Monopoly" (which is trademarked), Parker Brothers has no legal argument.
The game principle was patented in 1904 and 1924. Clearly, the patents duration has ended by now. Also, game rules are not enforcable as rights in many countries, although a particular rule text might be still under copyright.
However, I can say that I'm sure that a court would rule sensibly, I mean, when Apple suing Samsung for copying a form factor (i.e. the dimensions of a device) can result in an injunction, what other sillyness can pass by a court?
They probably hope to increase their stock market value by copying Apple's lock down on their devices.
Next you will get an Microsoft Appstore and a Microsoft VM, but you will have to pay Microsoft money to run linux on that VM.
Ah yes, and development tools will be forbidden, unless you pay for a developer license from Microsoft.
All in the name of security, while viruses and trojans will just install themselves in userspace as normal apps, or might even hack into the OS irreversibly through bugs.
This is a stupid court decisions because next in line are politicians who complain about being called liars by Google Suggest, scammers who complain about being called scammers, churches who refuse being called looney, etc.
You end up with a huge index of forbidden word combinations, which affect negatively the performance of Google Suggest and are a pain to maintain. Next thing, someone will probbaly claim that Google should have placed them proactively on that list, and ask for damages.
I would support the idea of delisting such companies completely, but crooks and escroc's like the Lyonnaise de Garantie would then sue to be listed again.
Come on, in the days of dos you sometimes had to boot from floppies and now all I can have is a pseudo live cd which is only good for installing itself to the HD?
I guess this is really meant to be used with a virtual host?
You seem to prefer hiring people who run around, and never get anything accomplished. Well, great for your ego.
If the tech he is supposed to keep running is running, he did his job.
One would not fire a doorman for sitting around idle, just as one would not fire a firefighter who is waiting for the next fire.
So what is my position on this guy wanting money for writing software, whether it is doing in his spare time is questionable, since he admits to having idle time?
Well, I think he should negotiate a pay raise for exceeding his duties, but only after giving them the software. Holding it back is no good, since they might just reject it, and no-one would be off better.
If he gets no pay raise he should stop working on the software when on off-duty and consider leaving the company. Which is even more fun if they now have software that he could have supported best.
Maybe people shouldn't give immune response suppressing medication like Advil = ibuprofen, especially if the fever is not critical. I know wifes who freak out if the fever is even 1 degree higher than the normal temperature.
See this paper here, it is from 1990. "Adverse effects of aspirin, acetaminophen, and ibuprofen on immune function, viral shedding, and clinical status in rhinovirus-infected volunteers."

I believe him, but a sample size of three languages is not convincing at all.

Good luck in your affairs!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ball_(mathematics)
Clearly the open ball is limited, yet regardless of how close you come to the shell (but stay inside the ball), you can always come closer.
Also, there does not need to be a containment, but the nonexistance of something.
I must say Google Translate does a decent job.
I'll try to find time to understand what is being said.

What i wonder is, how is this data supposed to be "normalized" as the slashdot summary suggests?
It appears to me the number of crashes would be proportional to the number of OSes out there of that version?
Well, then translate the book to English, so someone unbiased can take a look.

end
step 1: observe correlation: the more time people spend in your store, the more they buy
step 2: optimize placement of stuff so that people stay longer in store
step 3: profit!
side effect: waste time of peoples' time.

This means I will have a motive to stick with old pc hardware even longer, to make use of my monitor
How about arguing that the law can crack down on megaupload just fine shows the lack of necessity for SOPA and PIPA?

It is a bad idea to expand laws to other countries through treaties if these countries have a different culture.

This is not about single court decisions.
This is a stupid court decisions because next in line are politicians who complain about being called liars by Google Suggest, scammers who complain about being called scammers, churches who refuse being called looney, etc.

Just run linux in javascript, someone did that and it is online. You now only have to install Chrome on it to perfect the loop.
